Pi-hole VS Webmin

Could dedicate 2 of them to home server stuff or smart home automations. Pihole, docker, plex, nextcloud etc.

You might want to checl.this out https://pi-hole.net/. You can even install it on a VM and it blocks almost all ads in all your devices, including your TV. Wink wink

I recently installed https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole and I'm watching the windows and Mac OS devices call home many times per minute, along with both android and ios also chatting 24 hours per day to ad servers, even when the device is just laying there and not being used.

and you are doing the right thing. In my opinion that's why reddit exists. If you are interested take this challenge and set up pi-hole on your network and give your entire household ads free :) https://pi-hole.net/

Alright guys, time for you to know about Pihole, its adblock but instead of running in your browser, it runs ON YOUR ROUTER.

If you have Pi-hole would it skip the 30 seconds or just give you 30 seconds of black screen?

I use a PiHole then run the TV like normal, minus the ads.

There is already Cockpit mentioned, I use from years Webmin on all my VM's

If you aren't in this to learn a lot, you may want to also consider a web hosting control panel like cPanel (not free), DirectAdmin(not free), webmin + virtualmin (free for multiple sites, virtualmin Pro is not free), Centos webpanel (not FOSS but free for non-Pro), Hestia control panel (FOSS), Plesk Obsidian (not free).

install joomla CMS to your web folder (public_html). And go to browser enter your domain and you will see setup joomla instructions. After all your web site is ready. Then you can customize your web site as you can do. Finally many thanks to developers who work for for Joomla , Virtualmin, Debian, Webmin, Let's Encrypt and more Open Source's organizations. I think people must support such Open Source's organizations My motto is that "World can be better with knowledge". ** I i wish to prepare Youtube serial for more details from start to end **

What you need then isn't a RMM, it is most likely a server accessible via a web interface. If you want to go the Ubuntu server rout, try out Webmin, I used it for a bit and if work well, but it's not the best.

with any OS you could use Webmin https://www.webmin.com/ or (better) Cockpit https://cockpit-project.org/ to manage the server and install what you need to have a webserver up and running

After this, you can choose which components you want to install. Definitely tick "SSH server" and "standard system utilities". We won’t be using a desktop environment, nor a window manager, because we’ll install Webmin to manage our server via a very nice web interface.

The only suggestions I can think of that might help you are: - Cockpit: a web-based interface for administering your system - Webmin: another web-interface for administering systems - Using tab autocomplete in the terminal to reduce how much you need to actually type - Fish shell: an alternative to bash and other terminal interpreters with better autocompletion and autosuggestion/predictive text features.
